January 25Dental Hygiene Day

I like things that
make you grit your teeth.
I like tucking my chin in
and sort of leaning into the storm.
I like that feeling.
I like it a lot.

Over on a month full of Smiley Silliness it’s Eat a Raw Onion Day. For this one, I’ll opt to be an observer. I do love raw onion, but a whole one? My hubby did, as a teen, eat a whole raw onion once on a dare. And he’d be the first to say, don’t do it!! And if you do, brush your teeth!

Today is also Bubble Wrap Appreciation Day and Have Fun at Work Day. You know what I’m going to suggest; how about having some fun at work popping bubble wrap!

Today we say happy birthday to Etta James. Good golly Miss Molly, do I ever love Etta’s music!! If you aren’t familiar with Etta James, or even if you are, do yourself a favor and hop over to You Tube and check out her long and wonderful career.

BTW, today’s Dental Hygiene Day falls on the anniversary of the introduction first electric dental drill in 1875.
